could be leaking from a head gasket and trickling down or your heater core is leaking and driping out of the condensation drain from inside the cab. most likely its your heater core. check the fire wall above the starter and look for that drain line. if it is dripping and is colored (green or orange) its coolant and coming from heater core. that's a bear to replace. good luck.

What can cause a car to lose coolant?

Lots of possibilities. Here's what I can think up in a few minutes. Is the liquid visibly leaking out or just disappearing? Does it come out in bunches or in drips that show up on your garage floor? The radiator could leak through a seam, or due to corrosion in the main core. The heater core could be leaking. Leaking hoses. This could be the main radiator hoses, or the two that go to the heater core. It could also be a leak out of the overflow tank or the line that runs to it. Leaking freeze plugs. These corrode with time, especially if you don't flush and fill your radiator regularly. Is it regularly overheating? Maybe the coolant is just boiling off and escaping through the overflow tank, assuming you have one. Then there's bad stuff. Leaking head gaskets allow the coolant to enter the combustion chamber or the crankcase. And really bad stuff. Your head or block are cracked and the coolant is leaking into one of the places above. SEVERAL THINGS. A HOLE IN A HOSE TO THE RADIATOR FOR ONE a hole in a heater hose or radiator hose a leaking radiator a leaking intake manifold a leaking cylinder head a leaking heater core if there is any coolant on the ground then it should be easy to see the leak. if there is coolant loss and you can not see it, there might be a internal problem (cylinder head gasket) or the coolant is evaporitating before it hits the ground. pull the oil cap off, if it looks like you spit on the cap then its coolant in the oil. you might want to try and run the vehicle and see if you see any blue smoke coming from the exhaust, if so its probaibly a head gasket. i need more information to help you diagnose the problem correctly (year, vehicle, engine size, etc.)
